UMKC Statement on
Diversity
Diversity, equity and inclusion are central to the UMKC mission as an urban-serving institution. Kansas City is a
particularly diverse city, including African, African American, Asian, German, Irish, Italian, Latino, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Native
American and Slavic communities. Such ethnic diversity, in addition to our thriving neighborhoods of the Westside, Northeast Kansas City and
the Eastside, fosters creativity, connection and innovation, which is showcased across the region. Major attractions such as the Annual
Ethnic Enrichment Festival, the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, the Filipino Cultural Center, the American Jazz Museum, Guadalupe Centers and
Mattie Rhodes and Kansas City Irish Fest are a small sample of the many ways our diverse city enriches us.
For the reasons
enumerated above, UMKC’s strategic plan prioritizes our commitment to multiculturalism, globalism, diversity and inclusion. The university’s
values call upon its faculty, staff, students and community to position themselves as global citizens who seek out, embrace and celebrate
the many benefits of diversity. UMKC received the Higher Education Excellence in Diversity (HEED) Award in 2019 in recognition of our
continued commitment to equity and inclusion. Such commitment is demonstrated across teaching, service and research. We welcome applicants
